San Matteo 2016 - Il "Fuoco" nemico“ - Parlano i portatori delle statue dei Santi

"As also emphasized by the Municipality of Salerno, during the celebration of the patron saint, the entire port area is a traditional place of strolling and entertainment for Salerno residents and the many tourists who visit the city. Furthermore, traditionally, the nautical clubs organize events that attract large crowds." Therefore, "the conditions for the fireworks display to be held are not met." The association of porters and merchants, who had raised €11,000 for the fireworks, expressed their disappointment at this decision, which once again deprives Salerno residents of their long-awaited fireworks display.
